329. It was narrated that Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Beware of stopping to rest and praying in the middle of the road, for it is the refuge of snakes and carnivorous animals, and beware of relieving yourselves in the middle of the road, for this is an act that provokes curses.'"(Da'if)
329 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ: سَالِمٌ، سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِيَّاكُمْ وَالتَّعْرِيسَ عَلَى جَوَادِّ الطَّرِيقِ، وَالصَّلَاةَ عَلَيْهَا، فَإِنَّهَا مَأْوَى الْحَيَّاتِ وَالسِّبَاعِ، وَقَضَاءَ الْحَاجَةِ عَلَيْهَا، فَإِنَّهَا مِنَ الْمَلَاعِنِ»

At night time when traffic comes to a halt on the streets, insects and carnivorous animals come out of their hiding and pass through the streets. So, if someone chooses to sleep there he runs the risk of being stung or bitten by scorpions and snakes etc.
